Fish sauce, for those of you who may not know, is a common ingredient in Asian seafood dishes. It's very salty, and is mostly made from anchovy.

(Friday. INT: Capsaicin Lounge kitchen)

TM (to unnamed cook): Dude, those drunk chicks I was telling you about?
unnamed cook: Yeah?
TM: Well, I just brought them their entrées, and one of them professed a heartfelt desire to - and I quote - "gargle my manchowder".

JH (desperate, grabbing TM by the shirt): Was she blonde?
TM: Wh- what?
JH: Did she order the jellyfish?
TM: Y-yeah!

JH (dramatically sprinting through the restaurant): NOOOOOOO!!!!!

JH (sprawled across MH's plate, food everywhere, her fork in his hand): Hi, Max.
MH: Hi.
JH: The jellyfish dish has fish sauce in it.
MH: Good to know.
